Summer is fasting coming to a close but that does not mean the Summer Desserts need to stop. This week I decided to whip up a fast and easy dessert. Honestly it took no time at all and there were no leftovers. Strawberry Shortcake can be complicated and time consuming, sometimes. My quick and easy took a few minutes to prepare and is something you can get the kids to help with.
Summer Desserts
Summer Desserts are by nature of the season quick and easy, well at least in my mind. I love creating homemade goodness with only a few ingredients. Plus it’s hot and warm outside so light and airy is so summer appropriate. Light Pies. heavenly dips all cool and refreshing. Today I opted for a cake, meaning Strawberry Shortcake.
Quick and Easy Strawberry Shortcake
A few quick shortcuts and you have a company ready dessert to serve anytime, anywhere. Well at least anytime you happen to have strawberries on hand. At the grocery store I happened to notice a package of mini sponge cakes. Remembering that I still had a package of strawberries in the fridge ( sorry Sangria) a light bulb went off. Child friendly desserts. Plus bonus time, the perfect dessert to practice my Photoshop techniques on. Thanks to Click Start Club I am having a blast.
